BACKGROUND

1. Field

2. Description of the Related Technology

Organic light emitting diode (OLED) devices have been drawing attention as a display device and a luminous device. An organic light emitting diode device includes two electrodes and an emission layer interposed therebetween, and emits light when electrons injected from one electrode are combined with holes injected from another electrode in an emission layer to generate excitons that release energy.

The metal complex compound according to one embodiment may be represented by the following Chemical Formula 1.

In Chemical Formula 1,

-   -   M¹ is a Group 2 metal ion or Group 3 metal ion,     -   R¹ to R⁸ are the same or different, and are hydrogen, deuterium         (D), a halogen, a hydroxyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted         C₁ to C₂₀ alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C₂ to C₂₀         alkenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C₂ to C₂₀ alkynyl         group, a substituted or unsubstituted C₁ to C₂₀ alkoxy group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₃ to C₃₀ cycloalkyl group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₃ to C₃₀ cycloalkenyl group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₃ to C₃₀ cycloalkynyl group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₂ to C₃₀ heterocycloalkyl group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₂ to C₃₀ heterocycloalkenyl group,         a substituted or unsubstituted C₂ to C₃₀ heterocycloalkynyl         group, a substituted or unsubstituted C₆ to C₃₀ an aryl group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₆ to C₃₀ aryloxy group, a         substituted or unsubstituted C₂ to C₃₀ heteroaryl group, an         amine group, an ester group, a carboxyl group, a nitro group, or         a cyano group, provided that at least one of R¹ to R⁸ is         deuterium, and     -   y¹ is 2 or 3.
